Definitions
- the present invention relates to a regulation system in a paper machine for control- ling the variation of the basis weight of a paper web in the machine direction, in which the basis weight profile of the paper web is measured by means of a measurement device.
- the system of regulation comprises a basis weight regulation system which receives the signal of the measured basis weight from the measurement device and generates a regulation signal by whose means the flow of thick stock passed into the short circulation in the paper machine is regulated by means of an actuator, such as a basis weight valve and/or a regulation pump.
- the systems of regulation of the machine-direction basis weight of the paper produced by means of paper machines operate as follows.
- the flow of the thick stock entering into the wire pit is regulated by means of a basis weight valve based on the measurement of the basis weight in the dry end of the paper machine.
- the basis weight of the paper web is measured by means of measurement detectors traversing in its cross direction, and the result of measurement of the cross-direction basis weight profile is produced as an average value and passed into the system of regulation as a feedback signal.
- the flow of thick stock is passed, in a manner known in the prior art, into the wire pit and into which wire pit, the wire waters are also passed from the wire part of the paper machine.
- the thick stock flow and the wire waters are mixed together, and the diluted stock flow thus obtained is passed, in a manner in itself known, through stock cleaning and deaeration devices into the inlet header in the headbox and from there further through the distributor manifold, possible stilling chamber and the turbulence generator of the headbox into a slice duct of the headbox.
- the stock suspension jet is discharged onto a forming wire or into a forming gap defined between a pair of forming wires.
- the cross-direction basis weight profile of the paper produced by means of paper machines is often regulated by means of profiling of the height of the slice opening based on the measurement of basis weight taking place in the dry end of the paper machine and described above.
- dilution regulations have also become more common, in which a dilution medium, typically wire water or clear filtrate or, in exceptional cases, a stock more dilute than the stock in the headbox, is fed into discrete feed points separate in the cross direction in connection with the headbox.
- the cross- direction basis weight profile of the slice jet is profiled together with, or without, regulation of the top slice bar.
- the headbox can be run with a slice opening at a uniform height, so that the cross-direction flows in and after the slice jet, arising from the profiling of the height of the slice opening, and the distortions in the fiber orientation profile in the paper, as a result of such cross-direction flows, can be substantially avoided.
- the delay in these systems of regulation from the actuator to the basis weight measurement point consists of the delay caused by the stock flow from the wire pit to the headbox and of the time of the passage of the paper web from the headbox to the measurement frame in the dry end of the machine.
- the magnitude of the delay depends on the stock flow velocity in the pipe system of the short circulation and on the machine speed.
- the dead time in this type of system of regulation is typically of an order of one minute. Further, the regulation is made slower by the fact that, after a change in the position of the basis weight valve, reaching of a stable situation requires equalization of the consistencies in the entire short circulation. The time constant arising from this in the process is typically several dozens of seconds.
- the system of regulation includes control means for controlling the variation of the basis weight in the machine direction in the paper machine, besides by means of a slow circuit of regulation- the use of a basis weight actuator to control the flow of thick stock into the wire pit, also by means of a substantially quicker second circuit of regulation which comprises an actuator or actuators and is associated with the dilution profiling system of the headbox.
- a substantially quicker second circuit of regulation which comprises an actuator or actuators and is associated with the dilution profiling system of the headbox.
- the regulation of the machine-direction basis weight profile is not accomplished exclusively by means of the system of regulation of the headbox, but in combination with regulation of a prior art basis weight valve or equivalent.
- controlled changes are made in the overall dilution, i.e., in the level of dilution extending across the entire width of the paper web, by means of which controlled changes some of the slowness related to the regulation of the basis weight valve is compensated for.
- the dead time of the process can be reduced typically to about 20 seconds.
- the detrimental effect of the time constant arising from the stabilization of the consistencies can be reduced substantially by connecting the regulation with measurement of the consisten- cy of the stock entering into the headbox. This measurement can be used as a feedforward control for the dilution regulation, in which case, in a situation of change, the headbox consistency can be stabilized quickly in spite of the slowness caused by the large total volume of the short circulation.
- An embodiment of the method in accordance with the invention for controlling variation of the basis weight of a paper web in the machine direction includes the steps of measuring the basis weight of the dried web, e.g., after the dryer section, and controlling the flow of thick stock into a wire pit containing white water from the paper machine based on the measured basis weight of the web whereby a mixed flow of the thick stock and white water is passed into a headbox of the paper machine.
- a first variable diluting flow is directed into the headbox, possibly into the mixed flow of the thick stock and white water being passed in the headbox, across substantially the entire width of the web, and the level (flow rate) of the first diluting flow and/or the consistency of the first diluting flow is controlled across substantially the entire width of the web based on the measured basis weight of the dried web.
- a second diluting flow is passed into the mixed flow of the thick stock and white water being passed into the headbox, the consistency of the mixed flow after a mixing point of the second diluting flow and the mixed flow is measured, and the level of the second diluting flow is controlled based at least in part on the measured consistency of the mixed flow after the mixing point (i.e., feedback regulation circuit).
- the consistency of the mixed flow before the mixing point of the second diluting flow and the mixed flow is measured, and the level of the second diluting flow is controlled based at least in part on the measured consistency of the mixed flow before the mixing point.
- a second diluting flow may be directed into connection with the first diluting flow to form a combined diluting flow
- the consistency of the combined diluting flow being passed into the headbox is measured after a mixing point of the first diluting flow and the second diluting flow
- the level (flow rate) and/or consistency of the second diluting flow being directed to the mixing point is regulated based on the measured consistency of the combined diluting flow.
- the consistency of the stock flow entering into the headbox and the consistency of the first diluting flow entering into the headbox are measured, and the level or flow rate of the first diluting flow and/or the consistency of the first diluting flow is controlled based at least in part on the measured consistency of the stock flow entering into the headbox and the measured consistency of the first diluting flow.
- Figure 1 is a schematic illustration, mainly as a block diagram, of the system of regulation in accordance with the invention and its connection with the paper machine and its stock feed system;
- Figure 2 is a schematic illustration in part of Fig. 1, being a more detailed illustration of a first embodiment of the invention
- Figure 3 is a schematic illustration in part of Fig. 1, being a more detailed illustration of a second embodiment of the invention.
- Figure 4 is a schematic illustration of a third exemplifying embodiment of the invention.
- FIG. 1 is a schematic illustration of the system of regulation in accordance with the present invention and its connection with the paper machine and its stock feed system.
- the paper machine comprises a headbox 10 including a slice duct 10a having a slice opening 10A from which a stock suspension jet J is fed onto a wire in the wire part 11 of the paper machine.
- the wire part 11 is followed by the press section and the dryer section (not shown).
- the ready dried paper web WE runs past a basis weight measurement device 21 which measures its basis weight. This measurement may take place after the web has been dried to its final basis weight after the dryer section.
- a measurement signal m 0 for the cross-direction basis weight profile of the web WE is obtained, which signal can, if necessary and/or desired, be passed to the regulation system of the height profile of the slice opening 10A of the headbox 10.
- the result of measurement of the cross-direction basis weight profile obtained from the measurement device 21 may be processed by computational means to produce an average value, and hereby the measurement signal mi of the machine-direction profile is obtained.
- This signal m is passed to a system 20 of regulation of the machine-direction basis weight.
- the regulation signal C j is obtained (i.e., the average value of the basis weight determines the regulation signal) and used to control a basis weight valve 22 of the thick stock flow TSF.
- the basis weight valve 22 instead of regulating the basis weight valve 22 by means of the signal c, it is also possible to regulate the speed of rotation of the pump (not shown) that feeds the thick stock flow TSF.
- the thick stock flow TSF whose quantity has been regulated by means of the valve 22, is fed into a wire pit 12 of the short circulation in the paper machine, into which wire pit the wire water flow WW drained from the paper web in the wire part 11 is passed.
- the thick stock flow TSF and the wire water flow WW are mixed together.
- a diluted stock flow DSF departs, which is passed through a stock cleaning and deaeration unit 13 and through a stock pipe 14 into the inlet header of the headbox 10.
- regulated dilution water flows DW are passed into the headbox 10 into separate flow points in the cross direction of the headbox.
- the cross-direction basis weight profile of the stock suspension jet J is controlled, possibly together with regulation of the cross-direction profile of the slice opening 10A of the headbox 10 (possibly in association with measurement signal m Q ) or, preferably, without this regulation, in which case a favorable slice opening 10A of uniform height is used.
- the regulation of the machine-direction basis weight profile in the paper machine is accomplished in the manner shown in Fig. 1 by passing a regulation signal c 2 from the basis weight regulation unit 20 to an appropriate actuator 23 which regulates the diluting flows DW. More specifically, by means of the actuator 23, the level of the quantity of the dilution flow DW passing into the headbox 10 may be changed across the entire width of the headbox 10 and the web WE.
- the regulation signal c 2 is generated based on the measured basis weight of the web, for example, as represented by the first measurement signal from the -measurement device 21, although it may be based on a measurement of the basis weight obtained in a different manner possibly by a different measuring unit.
- Figs. 2 and 3 are more detailed illustrations in part of Fig. 1 , and are block diagrams illustrating two preferred embodiments of the invention.
- FB the feedback part of the regulation system
- FF the feedforward part of the regulation system
- FB rapid regulation of the consistency of the stock flow DSF fed into the headbox 10 (which constitutes a mixture of the thick stock flow TSF and the wire water flow WW) is carried out by means of separate dilution at the mixing point 15a, to which point, in view of regulation of the overall consistency of the stock flow fed into the headbox 10, a dilution flow DWT is fed, which flow is regulated by means of the actuator 24a.
- This actuator 24a is regulated by means of a feedback regulation signal cc, which is formed based on the signal cm of measurement of the consistency of the regulated stock flow DSFC after the mixing point 15a.
- the actuator 24a is, for example, a valve that regulates the dilution flow of the headbox stock or a corre- sponding regulation pump.
- the feedforward regulation circuit FF includes measurement devices 27a, by whose means the consistency of the short circulation of the main stock flow of the headbox is measured before the mixing point 15a (represented by the notation mf), whereby the regulation is made quicker.
- a regulation signal cf is generated by the measurement devices 27a and utilized to regulate the actuator 24a either alone, if the feedback circuit is not present, or in conjunction with the regulation of the actuator 24a determined by the feedback regulation signal cc.
- the feedback regulation circuit FB and the feedforward regulation circuit FF which are shown in Fig. 2, can be used either separately or together as a combination in view of obtaining an optimal regulation result.
- the regulation circuit shown in Fig. 3 has an embodiment in other respects similar to that described above in relation to Figs. 1 and 2 except that, instead of or in addition to the regulation of the consistency of the headbox stock, the consistency of the dilution water flow DW used for cross-direction consistency profiling in the headbox is regulated by means of a feedback regulation circuit FB and/or by means of a feedforward regulation circuit FF.
- a feedback regulation circuit FB and/or by means of a feedforward regulation circuit FF.
- the feedback regulation circuit FB includes an actuator 28, which is, for example, an actuator 28 which is used for dilution of the dilution water flow DW, i.e., an actuator that regulates the flow DWC used for regulation of the consistency, for example a pump or a valve.
- an actuator 28 which is used for dilution of the dilution water flow DW
- an actuator that regulates the flow DWC used for regulation of the consistency for example a pump or a valve.
- a regulator 24b is arranged and receives a regulation signal cm from the measurement detectors of the consistency of the mixed dilution flow DW after the mixing point 15b at which the diluting flows DW and DWC are combined.
- the regulator 24b passes the regulation signal cd to the actuator 28, and in this manner, a feedback regulation circuit FB for the flow DW consistency is formed.
- the feedforward regulation circuit FF shown in Fig. 3 includes a regulator 27b, which receives a measurement signal mf from an earlier stage in the dilution system before the mixing point 15b so as to make the regulation quicker. From the regulator 27b, a regulation signal cf is passed to an actuator 28, which operates as an actuator both in the feedforward regulation circuit FF and in the feedback regulation circuit FB.
- the feedforward regulation circuit FF and the feedback regulation circuit FB can be used either independently of one another or together as a combination.
- the consistency of the stock flow DSF (the combination of the thick stock flow TSF and the wire water flow WW) entering into the headbox 10 is measured by appropriate measuring means which generate a measurement signal cm.
- the measurement signal cm thus obtained is passed to the regulation unit 26a.
- the consistency of the dilution water flow DW is measured by appropriate measuring means, and the measurement signal cdm thus obtained is passed to the regulation unit 23 a.
- regulation signals are passed to a summing/difference member 28, to which the regulation signal c 2 described above is also passed, which signal is received from the basis weight regulation unit 20.
- the regulation signal cdc is obtained, which is passed to the actuator 23 that regulates the quantity of the dilution flow DW.
- the principle of operation of the regulation circuit illustrated in Fig. 4 is substantially the same as that of the circuit illustrated in Fig. 2, but in the regulation circuit shown in Fig. 4, a separate mixing point 15a placed in the approach pipe 14 is not used, but the consistency after the dilution stage is affected directly in the headbox. Since measurement of the overall consistency from the slice duct is very difficult in practice, the regulation circuit shown in Fig. 4 operates with the FF principle.
- the mode of regulation in accordance with the present invention can, however, be utilized so that the dilution quantity and the feed of thick stock are controlled at the same time so that an optimal result of regulation, i.e., the quickest response in relation to the basis weight, is achieved.
